I managed to go to a friends housewarming party a month early. She was very nonplussed when I was stood at her door with flowers and wine. Luckily she didn't have plans and we had a lovely time. I didn't live it down for a few years as normally I'm super organised!
I showed up to a family party with my family in tow a day late. We had a great laugh and visit.
Better with less people. You still had a good time. thumbs up.
Load More Replies...you really got it with the dad jokes don't you haha, good one
Load More Replies...They were probably all confused and were wondering what the costume has to do with anime
Load More Replies...https://www.buzzfeednews.com/article/laurenstrapagiel/fan-man-meme-on-tiktok
Load More Replies..."yeah, Its a new anime that came out called The Life Of A Ceiling Fan"
If you had just made up a reasonable name, I think u couldve got away with it...
Didnt it make you think that there is no one there you know? Still, second party here we come.
When you go to a party that you know only one person. A friend invited you for his brother's birthday party or so.
Load More Replies...Hail to the hosts for welcoming them in! I hope they made some new friends
Happens a lot in Nigerian parties. About 20% of people in a party are uninvited. It is not uncommon to see many complete strangers in a party. But they're allowed to stay and everyone gets to eat and have fun
That happened at a party I went to. Friends of mine lived in a neighborhood not far from the University of Washington in Seattle. Two college aged guys came in with a keg and started having a good time. They were a bit younger than most of the party goers, but my friend each assume they were friends of one of the other housemates. The guys realized they didn't know anyone at the party and exited with their keg.
My friend did that at a BBQ in the 90's, he ripped out two of his teeth and we had to call an ambulance for him.
I'm the strongest in my family and even I really struggle with those
Load More Replies...Sorry but i had to laugh at this one!!! Some people do have their ups and downs.
I found this hilarious too... probably too much TV in my life.
Load More Replies...Imagine he horror! Shouldn't he have called and y'all could've rescheduled?
Depends on a preacher. To really good ones that could have been a great conversation starter. I know a few.
Load More Replies...What I don't get about you christians is that you will happily 'celebrate' a pagan festival dressed up as a christian one with a huge bunch of commercialisation chucked in on top, then don't find it funny when your Guru / preacher / pastor / turns up and finds acting inappropriately . ..... A strange mix of hypocrisy, naivety and ignorance .... Go 'Murica...
Just wait till they find out Christmas and Easter have both been scheduled to cover up other pagan festivals. (Or what page in the bible do you think Easter eggs come from?)
Load More Replies...I've always thought this about the person-shaped pinatas. Beating Dora the Explorer as she dangles from a rope is just - !!!!!!!!!!
Could've been worse, they could've been beating it with a club!
"Optics" of pinata (usually a donkey, right?) are anyway f****d up.
guys...... we have found the Uncensored Lord. ALL HAIL MARK KELLY!!
Load More Replies...Plot twist: It was really his house but he wanted to end the party already and throw everyone out
Imagine that was actually his house, that's a hell of a way to get rid of all your guests at once.
The friend that invite everyone should of slipped out and left everyone else there.
The ones that are likely on Twitter like he is. Where he posted this. Not here.
Load More Replies...And you probably unsuccessfully tried to purchase tickets to the paralegal world games.
So she only left because they were ugly... Not because she had been deceived into attending an orgy... Normal...
not everyone dedicates their lonely, pathetic existence to pornhub like you @skullcrusherXxX, so pardon us if our knowledge of acute sexual variations isn't as abundant as yours
Load More Replies...That's what we're all thinking right now, Paige. That's what we're all thinking...
Load More Replies...If not wanting to f**k a room full of ugly strangers makes you judgemental, then so be it.
No obligations to join, watching is very much OK. Obviously leave if it's not for you, or if you didn't consent AS WITH ALL THINGS.
Load More Replies...If you're not attracted to someone, regardless of the circumstances, you're just not attracted. Nothing to be judgmental about. It's out of anyone's control. In this case, leaving was perfectly acceptable.
"everyone was obscenely bad looking"... "I am KINDA judgmental" is obviously still giving herself more credit than she deserves.
I honestly thought this was going to be “threw a party to celebrate becoming a qualified chef and cooked for 40 people. 24 hours later, i start getting notifications from the partygoers all stating they were sick”.
This one is exceptionally difficult to believe. As if the bf wouldn't be pounding on the closet door within that first 24 hours?? How big would an apartment have to be to not hear that? And indeed, if it is true, if the bf was nosy enough to venture into the other thousands of square feet (out of earshot) and into a closet, he deserved to be incarcerated.
And how is it possible he spent 24 hrs in closet without making noise that the home owner would have heard? Did he die in there?
Chefs have very long hours, then crash for a short sleep, so not that hard to imagine.
Load More Replies...You and the pika chu fan I think, omg that would have been horrible irl
Load More Replies...usually when people aren't enjoying an article, they switch to something else instead of painstakingly going through each individual post to publicly announce that they don't believe it. find another way to waste your time then.
Load More Replies...Snack is slang for very attractive person. I think they host wanted the invitees to bring hot girls lol
Load More Replies...Baby Ruth's = candy bars, Combos: pretzel cylinders the size of a cork with nacho cheese or something stuffed inside. For party food, not bad at all.
Load More Replies...Code for drugs? No...Jimmy's friends would never...😯
Load More Replies...We don't do because we want to embarrasse our children, but just because we think the same way it's funny or joyful or whatever, it will be for everyone. Almost like when we think our kid is the most beautiful kid in the world and you look to the kid and you think he/she/they is sweet kid, aka, ugly but you can't say ugly to the mother.
Load More Replies...friend threw you under the bus haha, you could've gotten away with it too
Threw under the bus and asked the driver to reverse a few times
Load More Replies...At least you were just laughing! I know a girl who every single time she gets drunk she passes out and pees herself where she lays (and it's not just occasionally). The thing that bugs me is she knows she does it and yet continues to get piss drunk at peoples houses and sleep on peoples furniture, carpets, etc. WHY!? I would be so embarrassed.
She was a cog, because cats steal the boyfriends and eat the toilet paper. The dog finishes the job.
Load More Replies...At least you didn't remember anything. PS im having a house party but you're not invited.
Don't you just hate those blackout periods? Especially when you don't realize that you even blacked out.
i have been drinking for years and i have only had one but i cant remember it.
Load More Replies...Blackouts can mean you have an allergy to alcohol. Be careful out there
curious about the story of the stranger who told them that haha
I had a barbecue in the park with a few friends some time ago. Then some weird looking guy showed up, started talking to us, acting like he was part of our group, and started eating our food. It was a bit awkward at first, but we had plenty of food, the guy seemed harmless and it gave us a good laugh when he left. I wouldn’t be surprised if the guy crashes barbecues like this every weekend though, as a way to save money with free meals.
If that ever happens again, just say you're from the CSA - Canadian Space Agency. No one knows who's actually in it, but they've heard of it. Chris Hadfield notwithstanding.
pfft we Caadians made the legs for the lunar lander and or scientist and engineers helped with the Apollo project.
Load More Replies...That is a good joke and here's a upvote for you
Load More Replies...13th birthday party. Woke up 2 hours early to decorate. Invited 14 people. 2 showed up. Spent an hour calling everyone else to see if they forgot. They hadn't. My mom ended up calling the neighbor kids to come over. My 2 best friends skipped it to watch a basket ball game. That was 24 years ago and the last time I ever had a bday party. Not that I'm bitter. :p
Load More Replies...That was my high school years. I would invite a dozen people, and maybe 3 would come after promising me they would be there. After a few times, I stopped inviting the other people, and only invited my best friends.
I’m not legally allowed to drink alcohol yet but I would’ve come!
This is why I don't have birthday parties anymore. My friends ask me why I don't have them well I don't know maybe because none of you f***ing come!?
My brother's first and last birthday party ever. He was 6, mom sent out invitations and went all out with food and decorations. No one came. They were both devasted. In all fairness, his birthday is December 26.
my sister got a case of toilet paper for a wedding gift. I thought it was genius!
Looking to grow your relationship....Head on over to your local stores garden section. (stay away from the hoes though)
because they were drunk and didn't want to be embarrassed/in trouble. What are you 2 ?
Load More Replies...How do you bite into a mushroom expecting a cookie, taste the mushroom, and think to yourself "this is a bad cookie" and not "this doesn't taste like a cookie, must be something else"??
I would worry about mixing with people that do not know the difference between sweet and savoury
pfft if they can't tell what they are you don't need unrefined people like that.
Nice one. very considerate not to do it over the floor. Tip - Use your shoe next time.
Because obviously a grossly-wet and stinky shirt is so much more pleasant to display...
*Grabs roman snacks* "Yeah, I like to dress up like my food."
Togas are Roman ;) So pizza would be a good choice here.
Load More Replies...At the polytechnic i went to there was a cancelled toga party. One person didnt know about the cancellation and turned up complete in toga to a newly booked yoga class
Toga Yoga. It's new. You probably have never heard of it. 😒
Load More Replies...What does "RA" stand for in this context? (Some abbreviations are not so easy for non-native speakers...)
Resident advisor. I believe it's Someone who kind of watches over and coordinates activities in residence halls in colleges and universities and such.
Load More Replies...RA - what is that. And a togo party.. there seems to be no party , just a snack- give away?? What what. A cultural thing maybe?
My bf's testicles popped back in when he was six or so, he had to have surgery on them. He told me this while we were working in a supermarket, before we started dating, and now has no memory of it and is horrified he told someone who was a colleague at the time about his testicles. I found it hilarious at the time that he told me that and still do (obviously not the surgery part, that's not funny).
LMFAO. Any photos? I bet you were dog tired after that. I would of had the right hump about that.
Not a fail? I mean it's a great movie and since nobody interrupted I guess they watched it at least with interest ?
Da*n good movie choice!! Should have played it along with The 6th Sense.
Same. My brother threw a couple huge parties while we were overseas visiting family, the only reason he got caught was the bottle caps my parents found when they moved the couch lol
So many excuses that he could have used: "Cleaned up after neighbors who refused to recycle (making him an eco-HERO and kind person)" , "Cleaned out friend's car (obviously a friend that he'd never want to see again"... etc
My parents only found out because my sister put the quaker parakeet in the laundry room....people were coming in and out that door...He got cold and died. She got to explain that one.
Your resourcefulness should be applauded. Instead of bit**ing, you found a way to keep on playing. Kudos!!
oh god, (photo before injury), I thought the guy on the right had something happen lol
I am assuming little brother asked to tag along to the town's parade and crashed after lunch. Beer in photo for humor value only.
Load More Replies...Start young. When you are older you will be able to handle any amount
lol i wish i could sttle stuff with my bro like that but i would destroy him
yup....I bet they were from my class lmao...they would all do this
Load More Replies...thats why my parents only do white wine at parties... never figured that out.
Load More Replies...Been there, done that, I had gorgeous cousins...........cest' la vie ;-)
Couldn't help but giggle when I saw the OP's last name: Zurcher. As in Zurcher's Party Stores. Irony??
Worse still, I got the time wrong and a close friend had all of her best friends show up 2 hours late for her wedding. We did make the reception. 30 years later I still apologize.
🎶rule #2- don’t get too attached too, something you might looose🎶
🎶Le-le-let me tell you, you... This is how to be heartbreaker!!🎶
Load More Replies...Not a party fail, but a drunk one. So, last Christmas, my younger cousin and I drank a ton of eggnog, not knowing it was spiked and got drunk. Not only am I an apparent lightweight, I also sing a weird mashup of Bad Romance and Terry Pratchett’s Hedgehog Song. My dad recorded it and ever so often threatens to post it online.
For my nineteenth birthday party the only two people who showed up were the two people I had invited because I was socially obligated to. The rest either didn't show up or called way after they were supposed to be there with s**t excuses. One of my 'best mates' had forgotten and taken on an extra shift at work. That really took the fun out of hosting parties for me.
Alrighty. So, in 6th grade I was at a friend's birthday party and he had a bunch of stuffed animals. One of us decided to start a stuffed animal fight and I kid you not the rest of the night was spend whaling on each other with stuffed animals, dancing to Crab Rave, and accidentally drinking out of each other's cups because we forgot to write our names on them.
I was always the sober person (I just don't drink) and one guy hit on me so much taht I finally did something incredibly mean: I convinced him that the curtains were a different color, and he had drunk something so "off" that he wasn't seeing colors properly. the fact he believed it, and talked about it for *years* leads me to believe maybe he did drink something worse than the usual...
I do not think this counts as a party, but when I was in the fifth grade (I was ten, I believe-) I had picked up the AwEsOmE talent of being able to do a handstand, then walk on my hands like that. I really wanted to show my friend (Thank cats she was my only friend) my trick. So, I asked my father if he could take the cars out of the garage so I could show my friend. He said he had to go up to the attic anyway, which is in the garage. I did not notice the Little Giant expandable ladder in the corner, though. I invited my friend, walked on my hands a bit, then bumped into the ladder. It fell on me. My back and neck ache thinking about it-
Uggggh! These were embarrassing! Thanks for sharing! They made me laugh! I feel like Jimmy Fallon has the best challenges.
